Wednesday Inspiration: Peonies & Roses


As someone named for a flower show, loving flowers was somewhat inevitable. (For those of you who don't know, my first name is Chelsea, as in the Chelsea Flower Show in London).  This week I'm feeling extra inspired by peonies and roses.  Not only are they both blooming in my garden but I'm also going to a peony festival this weekend! 

Speaking of peonies, did you know the Herend Chinese Bouquet pattern features a stylized peony at the center?  I'm partial to the green color seen below but I also love the raspberry option.  I also love the delicate rose pattern on this smocked sleeveless top from J.Crew.  Is anyone else so happy that J.Crew is going back to some of their fun patterns and cuts? I feel like they've been so boring in the past few years.  I've been very into jade rolling lately, especially with allergy season.  This rose quartz face roller is much prettier than my green one and I'm sure would be just as good at relieving sinus pain.

I also love all of the floral designs in this springs Cass Dickson collection.  The gumdrop earrings are such a fun pop of color (and would look so good with any floral dress).  The golden flower & heart earrings are a gorgeous shade of pale pink and are lightweight enough to wear all day.  And the Matisse's Garden earrings remind me of a trip to the Matisse museum in Nice, France.  There are so many floral styles I love right now that it's hard to choose which pair to wear in the mornings!

If you missed this week's Wednesday inspo on my instagram stories, they're all saved in the highlights.  Let me know what you think in the comments below!
